Sherrilyn KenyonLetโs be honest. Who here thinks your professors can say what they really believe? It scares me to death, and should scare you too, that the superstition of political correctness rules the halls of reason. What does all of this mean? It means that telling us what to think has evolved into telling us what to say, so telling us what to do canโt be far behind. Before you claim to be a champion of free thought, tell me: Why did political correctness originate on Americaโs campuses? And why do you continue to tolerate it? Why do you, whoโre supposed to debate ideas, surrender to their suppression?

Someone whoยs got more than 400 amateur fights behind him no longer gets nervous before going into the ring and doesnยt lose his nerve during a fight. You know all the boxing styles, youยre prepared for anything, youยve got the pedigree that you need to be a successful pro.

To me that's priceless.
